Feng Qi finished reading his diary, picked up a pen and wrote May 13 on the notebook, but he didn't write any more. He sat in front of the window in a daze, thinking for a long time, and took out another notebook.
The previous one was a visit diary, and this one was a diary of group activities. Like Napel, Feng Qi also joined a very good group. This group also consisted of a mid-level wizard and several low-level wizards. Their subject was to transmit images through mental power. Feng Qi was good at a communication magic that just happened to fit their needs. Therefore, in the group activities every night, he, like Napel, could play a significant role.
If I choose to stay, they need me, right
Feng Qi flipped through the booklet again and again, reading his notes inside. After a while, he closed the booklet again and tossed it gently in his hand, as if he was measuring his own weight.
About ten minutes later, he walked out of the room and saw Naper still writing outside. He said, "I actually talked to Mr. Zhang Zhengli from the Personnel Group yesterday. He mentioned to me that they are preparing a review test. Those who pass the test can directly obtain citizenship. It is aimed at all kinds of talented people who are willing to join here, not just mages. This does not conflict with the Magic Talent Introduction Plan."
"Huh? How come I didn't know?" Naper looked up. "On the day we were welcomed, Lord Mao Kai only told us about the Plan, saying that we could stay here as long as we wanted, and that there would be various rewards if we provided magical knowledge that was not available here."
"That's right, but His Excellency Zhang Zhengli told me that the identities obtained are different depending on whether or not you pass the review. Those who stay here directly are outsiders and have to go through an observation period of several years. They can only become citizens if they meet the standards in terms of ability, financial resources, and contribution. Those who pass the examination and stay here are probationary citizens. After two years of probationary citizenship without any problems, they become real citizens." Feng Qi explained.
"What is a citizen?" asked Napper.
"Citizens are Chinese." Feng Qi said.
"Chinese?" Naper's eyes widened. "You mean, if I get citizenship, I can be like those people with black hair and black eyes? I can enter the library without restrictions? I can work freely in various workshops?"
"That's right! What you said is only a small part. You can also become an official here and get various rewards, but I don't quite understand these two points." Feng Qi said.
Naper suddenly came to his senses. "Why did you go to ask Mr. Zhang Zhengli about these things? Could it be that you also..."
Feng Qi nodded slowly and said, "My opinion is more direct than yours. This is not only a place where we can gain knowledge. I think this is a place that will change the entire world's magic landscape. Although my own magic level is not high, I am the first mage in the reading club to know Mr. Xiao Chen. When he challenged the road of refining the spirit, I was watching from below. Since then, I have been paying attention to, thinking about and studying them. Before I came here, I always had my own guesses about the territory of the Tower of China. After coming here, I found that what happened here exceeded my wildest imagination."
"I don't think as much as you think, but it seems that we have the same goal. Tell me what is the best way for us to do it." Naper is a straightforward person.
"I think we should go talk to Mr. Zhang Zhengli. I don't know when the first round of assessment will start. If possible, why don't we get the title of the first round?"
——————
Five days later, Feng Qi waited nervously at the door of a conference room in the Hewan New District Government Building. A few days ago, the committee agreed to select the two of them as the first batch of pilots for review and examination. In the previous two days, the personnel team arranged a series of background checks, solicited opinions, inquiries and interviews, and questionnaire assessments.
And today is the last interview.
The door opened and Naper walked out. Feng Qi saw that his face was pale and he was sweating all over, and he couldn't help but worry.
"How is it?" Feng Qi asked.
"Nothing, just a lot of people, I'm not used to it." Naper said nothing more, "They are waiting for you."
When Feng Qi walked in and took a look, he was shocked. There was a row of tables and chairs in the front of the room, with seven people sitting in a row. Each of them was holding a notebook and looking at him with various eyes.
Zhang Zhengli, who was sitting at the edge, said, "Mr. Feng Qi, you are welcome to participate in our review and assessment. Everyone present here is today's judge."
He extended his hand to the person in the middle of the room and said, "Let me introduce you to Mr. Guo Qian, the chairman of the Management Committee, the highest authority of our China Tower. We also have Chang Lin, the vice chairman of the committee, Mo Lanxin, the head of the personnel team, Mao Kai, the head of the magic team and the deputy head of the technology team, Peng Ziyi, the head of the intelligence team, Liu Wan, the deputy head of the foreign affairs team, and Zhang Zhengli, the deputy head of the personnel team. Today, we will review your qualifications to become a Chinese citizen during the probation period. Please take a seat now."
Under the guidance of Zhang Zhengli, Feng Qi sat on the chair in the middle of the room. The other fourteen eyes followed his movements. By the time he sat down on the chair, sweat was already breaking out on his back. He didn't even know if his face was as pale as Naper's.
At this time, Guo Qian smiled and said, "Mr. Feng Qi, you don't have to be nervous. There are many people here, which means they value you. You should feel proud."
"Yes, I'm not nervous." Feng Qi said, "I'm just a little... touched. I didn't expect that the China Tower would value us so much."
"Of course we value you. You are the talents that need to be introduced. This review system is not a restriction on you, but a hope to be responsible to everyone. You have been visiting our China Tower for two weeks, and I believe you have an idea of how we Chinese do things. Yes, we hope that talented people will join us, but more importantly, this tower and this group of people must maintain stability and harmony. If we allow unsuitable people to join, not only will he not be able to adapt, but we will also pay a heavy price." Guo Qian said slowly.
The communication here was all conducted in Chinese. Feng Qi was a mage who had been trained by Xiao Chen and others, so naturally he had no problem with basic communication. However, Guo Qian's words still confused him. He could only say, "I will try my best to show my truest thoughts, and I hope to gain your approval."
Several people on the opposite side nodded, seemingly confirming his attitude. At this time, the middle-aged woman in a blue coat, Mo Lanxin, asked, "Mr. Feng Qi, why do you want to leave the current Spirit Refining Tower?"
